NASA drops mini robots into volcano for science - VolcanoBot 1 was based on NASA's Durable Reconnaissance and Observation Platform (DROP) and was created at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena, California. Measuring 12 in (30cm) long with 6.7 in (17 cm) wheels, it was designed to navigate into the narrow fissures that are a common feature of volcanoes on Earth, Mars, Mercury, and the moons of Enceladus and Europa, and to retrieve data that may provide insights into how these volcanoes formed.
